DGC’s state-of-the-art Industrial Vacuumation Services and Equipment provide Metallurgical Plants and Cement Plants with safe, effective and reliable solutions for the handling and cleaning of industrial wastes and recovery of partially processed material spillages. In the metal processing industry, materials undergo different processes at different locations within the plant; from crushing, concentration though to smelting. The handling and transportation of material through the different processes may result in a number of spillages. These spillages pose challenges in many instances throughout the processes, especially when conveyor belts are used; for safety purposes, legislation prohibits the manual cleaning of spillages onto moving conveyors. With the use of DGC’s vacuum services, cleaning and recovery of material spillages along conveyors can be done safely without the risk of harming operators and at the same time not hindering production operations. Additionally, for cleaning material blockages that occur at various points in metal processing industry; particularly in hoppers, chutes, storage bins, thickeners and pipe networks. Our Vacuumation equipment can be employed to safely and effectively clear blockages with little or no production interruptions or losses, allowing process plants to run continuously and sustain production targets. In a similar manner, in Cement and Lime Plants material blockages along production lines can adversely affect productivity. DGC’s Vacuumation Services allow for the efficient and effective cleaning, unblocking and recovery of material at different points in the production line including preheater cyclones and silos.
